Here's the problem...

Out
Melo (backup four)
Kanter (backup center)
Rondae Hollis Jefferson (backup.... three? four?)
Harry Giles
TJ Leaf
Blevins

In
Zeller
McLemore
Snell
Brown

Who is the backup power forward?
How are we replacing 24.6 ppg, 14 rebounds, 2.7 assists with those four guys?

Well there is one more roster spot to fill the minimum and maybe that will be a vet min PF. I've been saying the same thing that we need a forward with size for our bench. That being said, Neil is the guy that acquired Powell to play the three and had an open roster spot and instead of picking up a big with it watched as Terry played Melo for long stretches at the 5. So we might just be fucked.

I grok where you're coming from, and it does look like an unfinished roster. But I've seen Olshey trot out benches just as bad and unbalanced before.

No matter what people think of Melo you gotta believe Dame isn't gonna be happy Melo is gone. Especially when he sees who we have brought in so far.

We have lost rotation guys and replaced them with.... very much not rotation guys. Well..... Zeller is rotation, but Snell and McLemore really aren't.
 
I think Michael Beasley might get a look for a cheap PF...he played really well in China for a stretch...see if he's matured and has grown as a player but he's plays a position we need help in

I disagree...I think he's happy to have Melo get a shot with Lebron..those two have known each other since high school.....Dame want's help and that meant a bench that can either build a lead or keep one....our starters could do that last season but our bench couldn't...addition by subtraction...Dame didn't know Melo much before he came here....CJ was closer to Melo on that level but there's respect.....Melo made his choice...had little to do with Neil...Chauncey criticized Melo's need to score before and they were teammates....Melo might not have wanted to play for Chauncey as much as anything
 
Surprisingly Iguodala is still un-signed. I bet he's looking for more than the minimum. I thought he was going to go back to the Warriors but they are already at like 13-14 guaranteed salaries. I'm not sure if they would give more than the minimum for Iggy.

I'd take Iggy for the TP-MLE. Having that experience is useful. Plus he is movable since every contender would like him.
 
To the Olshey defenders who say the improvement will not come through free agency, where is THE trade? WHERE ??? I can’t see it

hahaha this is the worst take I have ever seen on here.
Derrick Jones jr is not a point guard or shooting guard.
He can’t shoot, he doesn’t have handles or passing ability.

You seem to have difficulty knowing when someone is messing with you. I’ll avoid doing it again.
